Tornados and hailstorms that struck the Midwest creating a wide area of destruction this past weekend have generated thousands of claims for insurers.
The top two insurers in the worst-hit states of Missouri and Kansas report auto and homeowners claims of well over 20,000 in the two states and higher than 50,000 for the region.
